798 Bartolo & Pulvirenti: Sicilian orchids

Method

Genera, species and subspecies are listed alphabetically. The nothospecies, forming a
separate list, are given in the alphabetical sequence of the parents' names. For each taxon
the accepted name (and, for hybrids, parentage) appear in bold-face italics. The accepted
name and its basionym are followed by a full reference to the originai publication; further
synonyms (restricted to those that were used in the relevant Iiterature) are added in square
brackets. The distribution within Sicily is detailed in terms of provinces, mountain
massifs, and small islands, with numerical references to relevant sources (literature or
personal hebarium) documenting each particular occurrence. At the end, there are sepa-
rate sections for a criticai (taxonomically unassessed) species, for some others that have
been recorded in the literature but are doubtfully present in Sicily (incIuding old records
not recently confirmed), and for those recorded by mistake or by confusion with other
taxa. The nomencIatural treatment takes into account the most recent taxonomic and
nomencIatural revisions, in particular those of Baumann & Kiinkele (1986, 1988, 1989),
Baumann & Lorenz (1988), and G6lz & Reinhard (1993).

The distribution is indicated by use of the following abbreviations (in bold-face type):
Sicilian provinces (AG = Agrigento, CL = Caltanissetta, CT = Catania, EN = Enna, ME
= Messina, PA = Palermo, RG = Ragusa, SR = Siracusa, TP = Trapani.); main mountains
massifs (Et = Etna, Md = Madonie, MI = Monte Lauro, Ne = Nebrodi, PI = Monti
Peloritani); small islands (Eo = Eolian islands; Fa = Favignana; Le = Levanzo; Li = Lino-
sa; Lp = Lampedusa; Mt = Marettimo; Pt = Pantelleria; St = Stagnone islands; Us = lJsti-
ca). The symbol S denotes unspecific, generaIized records for Sicily. The bracketed
numbers refers to the numbered items in the References section at the end; number zero
(O) is used to refer to unpublished records documented in our personal herbarium (at
CAT); uncertain records are denoted by a question mark (?).
